What's Up In The Missouri Valley 12/8/2023

News, Notes, and Highlighted Games: Saturday, Dec 9th--Hoops HD

HIGHLIGHTED GAMES:

-NEVADA VS DRAKE (Jack Jones Classic, Henderson NV). Nevada comes into this game at 7-0 and has a decent win against Washington, but hasn’t had any really big tests yet. Drake has only lost one game, and while they might not be a “really big” test, they’re still a good team. This is a resume building opportunity for two teams whose schedules don’t necessarily provide them with an abundance of opportunities, which makes this an important game for both of them.

OTHER NOTABLE GAMES/BUY GAMES:

-Valparaiso @ Virginia Tech
-Southern Indiana @ Indiana State – The Trees can get to 9-1 on the year, which is amazing since this is just their 4th home game
